Last Descendents
Do I like her.( About the feeling of lightning)
"This is still the conclusion Uncle made Al. Uncle doesn't know for sure if Papa and your family were killed with this poison" Uncle Penrod replied.
"Uncle, why can Uncle conclude like that? There must be a reason, right?"
"You know, when the attack happened. Uncle is with King Jarrel. Help him fight the rebels. At that time King Jarrel gave the order for Uncle to take you out of the palace and leave the country for a while. Because King Jarrel had no hope of winning at that moment. Uncle went to the southern palace to take you silent. But before that happened King Jarrel and Prince Heren came to the southern palace. And for your safety Uncle brings you to hide behind the walls that have existed since King Jarrel became heir to the throne. From the inside we can see out but from the outside we can't see inside. And at that moment you know for yourself what happened. Uncle has tried to close your eyes but you brushed Uncle's hand away. Until..." Uncle Penrod took a deep breath because for him it was not easy to tell the incident.
The events that made him lose his best friend. Make it must witness the destruction of Gloretha's descendants.
"After Prince Heren left. You even cried when you were near King Jarrel. And at that moment King Jarrel made his wish. After that forcefully Uncle brought you out of the palace through the secret underground chamber that led us out of the palace. After that Uncle took you to Germany by air. At that time Uncle's body was very weak because Uncle got a wound from one of the rebels. For fear of what happens to Uncle, Uncle goes to the hospital and the doctor says everything about this poison. In Uncle's mind there is only, what if Uncle is gone? Who's gonna take care of you?" Uncle Penrod.
"They fought in a sneaky way. This is unforgivable! If indeed they killed my family in that way, I would have avenged them a thousand times more painfully," Aldora's chest felt as tight as imagined how her entire extended family had perished with one kind of poison.
"Al, that's just a conclusion. It could not be like that. Because Uncle can't check and be sure" said Uncle Penrod.
"Al, understand Uncle. As usual Al could not help but feel emotion," Aldora said, closing her eyes with her right wrist, which she used as a barrier between her vision and the light in the room.
"Al, Uncle knows you can at least pretend with the emotions you feel. But it is very necessary for now" said Uncle Penrod who was only replied by a small nod from Aldora.
"When can we get out of here, Uncle? It's not good to linger here for long" Aldora said, diverting the conversation.
"Two to three more days," replied Uncle Penrod deliberately obeyed Aldora's will who did not want to discuss further his attitude.
"It's too long Uncle, tomorrow Al has to attend the party" said Aldora who remembers the party.
"Forget it, let that man. You need full rest" said Uncle Penrod.
"Al, in Ordnung" said Aldora. (Al, fine)
"Alright, on one condition" Uncle Penrod could only relent with the stubbornness that Aldora had. Because he knew that he would never be able to fight the beautiful girl in front of him.
"Your lady?" (What?)
"You can only attend the event until 10" said Uncle Penrod.
Aldora looked pondering. The party starts at 9 and will probably end at midnight. That meant he would only attend the party for an hour.
"But Uncle-"
"Uncle," Aldora took a deep breath.
He knows the consequences of Uncle Penrod's actions. The death of Uncle Penrod. If King Heren saw Uncle Penrod, the rebel would have killed Uncle Penrod, who was his brother's confidant. And although King Heren did not see, if the man who knew Uncle Penrod and knew who Uncle Penrod was told that he saw Uncle Penrod to King Heren, what would the King do? Of course, find and kill him.
"Alright," said Aldora resigned.
"Kluges Menarchen" said Uncle Penrod with a happy smile. (Smart girl)

Next morning.
"Uncle, did Uncle have any information on where Papa was buried?" Aldora asked after they reached the apartment.
"No, yet" replied Uncle Penrod lethargic as he shook his head.
"Uncle is looking for where. To date, Uncle has not received any good news. Even Uncle had already searched the tombs of the royal family. But still nothing" replied Uncle Penrod.
"If it's my mom and my other family, how's Uncle?" Ask Aldora.
"There's no information whatsoever, Al. They were not all buried in the tombs of the royal family" replied Uncle Penrod.
"What kind of king is in charge here, Uncle?" Aldora muttered as she leaned her head against the headboard of the bed and looked up at the sky of her room.
"What kind of man is my real Uncle? Even after Papa and my family were also his family, he did not bury them properly. The greedy man that even today I forgot how he looked. All I remember is that he said a harsh word to Papa and his sword took Papa's life. Killed our family without guilt. Makes me have to lose all my family at the age of 6 years," Aldora said holding back tears from falling.
She must not cry, she must be strong. For his revenge he must live.
"Crying is Al" said the word always came out of Uncle Penrod's mouth as Aldora held back tears.
"Al don't want to cry, Uncle. Al must be strong must not be weak. Al was no longer the King's daughter whom the Empress had spoiled," and the word always came out when Uncle Penrod told her to cry.
"Al, rest. Don't think about anything else. Uncle will try harder to get the good news. Take care of yourself, don't get sick again, Princess" Uncle Penrod kissed Aldora's forehead, which his own daughter had assumed, and walked out of Aldora's room.
Al, forgive Uncle who can't be the one you can count on. Sorry because until now Uncle has not been able to find all your family's meals. For the second time Uncle felt like he had failed to become a royal bodyguard. Uncle even made him on the verge of death. If yesterday Uncle didn't arrive on time, Uncle would feel very guilty. Uncle will not be able to live if something happens to you. You are our only hope. Make this country back to what it was before.
